Description

FBG-based frozen soil ice content distributed in-situ measurement method and device
Technical Field
The invention discloses a method and a device for measuring ice content of frozen soil in a distributed in-situ manner by using Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBGs), and relates to the technical field of frozen soil ice content measurement.
Background
Frozen soil is soil with temperature lower than 0 ℃ and ice, and is a multiphase complex system consisting of soil particles, ice, unfrozen water and gas. Frozen soil is very sensitive to temperature and unstable in physical properties, and its characteristics are controlled by the amount of ice in addition to the soil texture, volume weight and water content. Unlike unfrozen soil, ice in frozen soil makes the properties of frozen soil both special and complex. Therefore, the measurement of the ice content of frozen soil has important significance for both theoretical research and engineering practice.
Currently, methods for measuring ice content in frozen soil include an expansion method, a dielectric spectroscopy method, a heat pulse method, and a nuclear magnetic resonance method (NMR).
The basic principle of the expansion method is as follows: the soil sample to be measured is placed in a cylindrical container to be wetted to saturation, and a tubular tensiometer is inserted at one end of the container and extends to the other end of the container. When the soil freezes, the volume of ice formed expands as the soil becomes saturated, and in order to ensure that the soil structure is not destroyed, the expanding volume forces a portion of the liquid water out of the soil pores and through the tensiometer into the pre-calibrated capillary. By measuring the liquid water in the capillary tube and then based on the expansion coefficient of the water frozen into ice, the volume of ice can be calculated.
The basic principle of dielectric spectroscopy is: the ice content is reflected indirectly by measuring the permittivity of the frozen soil, and is usually calculated by determining the dielectric spectra at two frequencies and combining a dielectric mixing model.
The basic principle of the heat pulse method is as follows: when the temperature of the frozen soil is unchanged, the unfrozen water content is no longer changed. The thermal conductivity of the frozen soil is measured by means of the heat pulse, and the ice content of the frozen soil can be calculated. The method is only suitable for the environment with lower temperature, and the measurement result is unreliable when the temperature is close to the freezing point.
The measurement principle of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) is: the nuclei of some atoms are like small magnetic rods, and under the action of the external strong magnetic field, the nuclei are oriented and arranged. If applied by radio waves, the atoms will absorb enough energy to rearrange in another stable direction within the applied magnetic field. The prepared frozen soil sample is placed in a pulse analyzer and radio pulses are applied to the emittance of the soil sample. Under the action of the radio pulse, the receiving coil around the soil sample will generate a voltage reflecting the atomic number of the absorbed energy, the magnitude of which is proportional to the atomic number of oxygen in the solid ice in the soil sample. The analyzer can measure the ice content in the frozen soil sample by detecting the voltage.
All the four methods can measure the ice content of frozen soil and have respective limitations: the expansion method is limited in a laboratory environment, so that the original structure of the frozen soil is easily damaged, and the ice content of the frozen soil of the unsaturated soil cannot be measured; the heat pulse method can measure the ice content in an environment with lower temperature, but when the temperature is close to a freezing point, the measured data is not accurate enough; the use of dielectric spectroscopy is limited by the type of soil; the NMR method has higher measurement accuracy, but the analyzer is huge and expensive, and is very complex to install and use, and the application range is limited to laboratory environment only, and cannot be widely used.

The principle of the invention is as follows: the basic principle of the FBG-based frozen soil ice content distributed in-situ measurement method is to measure the frozen soil ice content by utilizing the linear relation between the temperature characteristic value and the frozen soil ice content in the temperature rising process measured by an FBG sensor. Further it can be explained that: the heat conduction performance of frozen soil is determined by soil particles, gas, unfrozen water and ice, wherein the air heat conduction coefficient is 0.024W/(m.times.K), the water heat conduction coefficient is 0.60W/(m.times.K), and the ice heat conduction coefficient is 2.25W/(m.times.K). The characteristics of the soil particles are kept unchanged in the measuring process, and the thermal conductivity of gas is far smaller than that of unfrozen water and ice, so that the thermal conductivity of gas can be ignored, the total water content of the soil is kept constant, the unfrozen water content is determined by the ice content, and therefore, the thermal conductivity of frozen soil is determined by the ice content. Since the coefficient of thermal conductivity of ice is 3 to 4 times that of water, the higher the ice content, the stronger the heat conductivity of frozen soil. The pipe body FBG sensor with the internal heating function is implanted into frozen soil to be detected, the heating temperature of the pipe body is increased after the pipe body is electrified, a temperature difference is formed between the pipe body and the frozen soil, the heat transfer capacity in the frozen soil with higher ice content is stronger, the total energy generated by the pipe body due to constant power supply is fixed, so that the more the energy diffused into the frozen soil body, the less the energy used for heating the pipe body, and the lower the temperature characteristic value of the pipe body. Therefore, the frozen soil ice content can be obtained by measuring the temperature characteristic value obtained after the pipe body is heated for a certain time.

step three, connecting a power supply, electrifying the tubular sensor in the step two, and starting heating the tubular body under the action of current; stopping electrifying and heating after the diffusion heat flow density around the pipe body is constant, and starting cooling the pipe body;
step four, the FBG demodulator collects and records wavelength readings every 10 seconds, and converts the wavelength data into tube temperature information;
fifthly, drawing a heating curve of the tubular sensor by using a data analysis processing system, and selecting temperature characteristicsThe interval is after heating [14min,25min ]]Calculating the temperature characteristic value of each pipe body in the characteristic interval, and combining the frozen soil ice content fitting obtained in the previous step to obtain the linear relation between the temperature characteristic value of each pipe body and the frozen soil ice content: i= -0.709 Δt t +0.1406, the calibration coefficient R obtained by linear fitting 2 =0.998, as shown in fig. 5.
According to the same method and steps of the calibration test, the power-on heating, the information acquisition and demodulation, the temperature information analysis and the temperature characteristic value calculation are carried out, and the obtained temperature characteristic value is substituted into a linear function i= -0.709 delta T determined by the calibration test t In +0.1406, the ice content of frozen soil is calculated as shown in FIG. 6. As can be seen from FIG. 6, the frozen soil has an ice content of 8.2% as measured using the method of the present invention.
In the test process of this embodiment 1, the frozen soil sample and the FBG tubular sensor are both placed in a freezing chamber having the same temperature as the sampling ground, and the heating power supply, the FBG demodulator and the computer for analyzing and processing the monitoring data are all placed outside the freezing chamber.

step two, 13 FBG tubular sensors are vertically buried in the frozen soil to be detected in series through drilling, wherein each FBG tubular sensor is formed by connecting 10 FBG sensors in series, the distance between the adjacent sensors is 20cm, and the ice content of the soil with different depths can be measured simultaneously;
connecting the tubular sensor to a stable-power supply and an FBG sensor; connecting a power supply, electrifying and heating the FBG tubular sensor in the second step, and starting heating the tube under the action of current; stopping electrifying and heating after the diffusion heat flux density around the sensor is constant, and starting to cool the pipe body;
step four, the FBG demodulator automatically collects and records wavelength readings every 10 seconds, and converts the wavelength data into tube temperature information;
and fifthly, calculating temperature characteristic values sensed by all FBG sensors by using a data analysis processing system, substituting the obtained temperature characteristic values into a primary function determined by a calibration test, and calculating the ice content of frozen soil at each depth to obtain a change curve of the ice content of the frozen soil along with the depth, as shown in fig. 7.
The theoretical derivation process of the linear relation between the temperature characteristic value of the tubular sensor and the ice content of the frozen soil in the embodiment is described as follows:
assuming that the frozen soil to be measured has uniformity, the pipe body is positioned in an infinite soil layer with consistent initial temperature. Simplifying the heat transfer in such frozen soil into a one-dimensional problem. The unit area is taken on the surface of the tube body, and according to ohm's law, the energy generated in unit time of the unit area is as follows:

According to energy conservation, the energy used for heating the tube body per unit time is expressed as:

in the formula (5), r is a radius taking the pipe body as the center of a circle; t is heat exchange time; t (r, T) is the temperature of the rock-soil body at the position with the radius r from the center of the pipe body at the moment T; q is the heat exchange amount of the pipe body; l is the length of the pipe body; lambda is the heat conductivity coefficient of the rock-soil body; a is the thermal diffusivity of the rock-soil body; beta is a calculation process parameter; t (T) The temperature of the rock-soil body (namely the initial temperature of the stratum) at infinite distance from the center of the pipe body; c (C) S Is the heat capacity of the unit volume of the rock-soil body.
Assuming steady-state heat conduction of the pipe body, r takes the value of the radius r of the pipe body w Then the temperature T measured after heating:
based on the wireless long-line heat source model, the logarithm of T and time T is linear according to the formula (6) by using a linear derivation method. Can be simplified as:
T=klnt+m (7)
wherein T is the average temperature after the heating and stabilization in the tube body; p is the thermal resistance of the pipe body; gamma is Euler constant, and 0.577216 is taken; k and m are the relationship between the temperature and time measured by the FBG interrogator, and the slope and intercept of the straight line are obtained based on least square fitting.
The heat dissipation Q in combination with the temperature response can give the thermal conductivity:
the frozen soil consists of a soil framework, gas, unfrozen water and ice, so that the thermal conductivity of the frozen soil consists of four parts
λ=λ s s+λ g g+λ l l+λ i i (11)
Wherein s and g are the ratio of soil particles, gas mass and total mass of the frozen soil, and l and i are the ratio of unfrozen water, ice mass and total water mass in the frozen soil. The gas content g is extremely small and can be ignored, and the heat conductivity coefficient lambda of the soil skeleton, unfrozen water and ice is high s 、λ l 、λ s And the content s of soil particles can be obtained by related experiments and data, the unfrozen water content l=1-i, so that the frozen soil thermal conductivity is a linear function of the ice content, and can be expressed as:
λ=ai+b (12)
in formula (12), a=λ i ,b=λ s s+λ g g+λ l l, a and b are constants.
The combined type (3) (10) and (12) can obtain the characteristic value delta T of the ice content and the temperature t Linear relation of (c):
can be further simplified to obtain:
i=k 1 ΔT t +b 1 (14)
wherein the method comprises the steps ofk 1 、b 1 Are constant.
From equation (14), it can be seen that the characteristic value of the temperature of the tubular sensor is in a linear relationship with the ice content of the frozen soil. The frozen soil ice content can thus be calculated by monitoring the temperature of the tubular sensor.
The foregoing is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and it should be noted that modifications and adaptations to those skilled in the art may be made without departing from the principles of the present invention and are intended to be included within the scope of the present invention.
